Selecting the OK action-button initiates the loading of the installation binaries from tape to the J90 Console. A Load Binaries Speedometer is displayed to keep you informed of the progress of the load.
Upon completion, the following message is displayed.
Completed loading install binaries from tape. To activate the J90 Install changes~ you must quit the J90
Install Utility and restart it before continuing the installation.

'Ib activate the J90 Install changes, you must quit the J90 Install Utility and restart it before continuing the installation.
Failure to do so will result in errors with new routines.
The Mainframe Hardware Setup procedure is required at initial machine setup and each time a processor module or memory module is replaced. This procedure creates the configuration files containing the ASICS chip information that are required to clear the IDS prior to running UNICOS on the CRAY J90
mainframe. These files are accessed on the IDS and are in the following format:
/sys/pmO.c£g /sys/memO.c£g
# Processor Module configuration
# Memory Module Configuration
Selecting the Mainframe Hardware Setup menu item from the Initial Software Installation window displays a window with action-buttons of Setup Hardware and Cancel.

Selecting the Setup Hardware action-button displays the
following menu to query for information about the processor and memory modules:
• The Backplane 'J?ype must be selected. Allowable entries are lxI, 2x2, 4x4, and 8x8 .
• The Number of Processor Modules must then be selected.
Optionally, you may also specify the bit mask for each processor module to turn off'selected CPUs on the Processor Module. A pull-down menu is provided displaying all possible settings.
• Select the appropriate number of Memory Modules and the Memory '!Ype of each module. The memory type is stamped on each memory module board. A pull-down menu is provided displaying all possible settings.

Upon entry into the Mainframe Hardware Setup window, the display for the Memory '!Ype may be incorrect. If this occurs, simply re-enter the correct Memory Type via the pull-down menu before selecting the Configure Hardware button.
Selecting the Configure Hardware action-button will display the following n1alog box:
Selecting the Continue action-button verifies the specify files on the IDS and, if necessary, loads them from the UNICOS release tape. The procedure then performs a quick-load on the IDS, and runs the jconfig command on the IDS. If the jconfig
command is successful, the processor module and memory module configuration files will be created. If the j config is unsuccessful, you will be instructed to run the jconfig command manually from the lOS console.
A speedometer window is displayed to keep you informed of its progress:
Upon completion, the following dialog box will be displayed:

Selecting the Initial Installation menu item from the Initial Software Installation menu displays a Select Mainframe window with action-buttons of Quick Install and Cancel (the Custom option is not available yet).
After selecting a mainframe, clicking the Quick Install action-button displays a J90 Quick Install window with six panels of information described below:

• Hardware Information
Default settings for the System Name and System Node are filled in. You may change these values by clicking in the entry-label-box and editing them .
• Memory
The number of memory boards are selected based on the probing by the j conf ig command (performed in the Mainframe Hardware Setup procedure). If this setting is incorrect, you will need to run the Mainframe Hardware Setup procedure. If you wish to run UNICOS with less memory than selected, you may decrease the memory setting specified.
• Processor Modules
The number of Processor Module boards are selected based on the probing by the jconfig command (performed in the Mainframe Hardware Setup procedure). If this setting is incorrect, you will need to run the Mainframe Hardware Setup procedure. If you wish to run UNICOS with fewer CPUs than selected, you may decrease the setting specified.

• Load Optional Async Product Relocatables
With the release ofUNICOS 9.0, all optional asynchronous relocatables are automatically loaded. Therefore, this panel of input can be ignored.
• Disk Information
If you wish to have the system parameter file automatically generated, select the generate new radio-button. For CRAY J90 Series systems, there is a significant change to the disk space allocation scheme compared to the CRAY EL Series systems. If this option is specified, two sets of production disk partitions are created (named roota/usra/srca and
rootb/usrb/srcb). This allows for a subsequent upgrade installations into the alternate set of partitions in multiuser mode without disturbing the running system. In addition, the bkroot and bkusr disk partitions are automatically created for you. The bkroot and bkusr file systems should be used for backing up your current production system. The only exception to this is CRAY J90 machines with extremely
limited disk space. Specifically, any space beyond 1465536 4K byte blocks will be allocated to the following file systems: opt, bkroot, bkusr, home, diskO - diskxx.
Starting with UNICOS 9.0, an lopt partition is created for asynchronous product installations when the generate new option is selected. This new file system is built with a size of 150,000 4K-byte blocks.
If you plan to use an existing parameter file, select the use existing radio-button and you will be prompted for the desired file in an entry-label box. When the Start Install action-button is later selected, the rootdev statement in the selected param file will be validated against the root partition and will display an warning dialog-box if they differ.

• Partition Selection
If you wish to select alternate partitions for loading
root /usr / src, click in the desired entry-label and edit. If you selected the generate new option, a / sys / param file is built for you using roota and rootb.
Selecting the Start Install action-button from the J90 Quick Install menu displays the following dialog box:
Please ensure the 190 UNICOS release tape is inserted into the tape drive. Press the 0 K button to continue with this procedure.
Selecting the OK action-button initiates the installation and displays a speedometer window to keep you informed of its progress.
A log file window will then be displayed in the upper right-hand corner capturing the detailed output of the installation.
If you have pressed the Stop action button to interrupt the software installation, three additional action buttons are highlighted:

The J90 Install procedl.l..1"es do not automatically create (mkfs) the / core partition or initialize the du .. ·np partition (via
mkdump). This should be done before entering multiuser mode.
For more information, refer to the UNICOS Basic
Administration Guide for the CRAY J90 and CRAY EL Series, publication SG-2416.
If you want to run the Installation and Configuration Managment System (ICMS), you must first IMPORT ALL parameters. Refer to section 6.3.1 for more information. Failure to perform this procedure prior to an ACTIVATE, will cause customized parameters to be overwritten by generic values from the release tape.
The procedures for reinstalling CRAY J90 UNICOS are now complete. Refer to Section 6, J90 UNICOS 9.0.2 Release, for general release information and known problems.
For more information on administering your system, refer to the UNICOS Basic Administration Guide for CRAY J90 and CRAY EL Series, publication SG-2416, and/or UNICOS General System Administration, publication SG-2301.
This section describes the procedures for sites that are currently running CRAY J90 Series system software and are upgrading to a new release level.
Please note that for CRAY J90 Series systems, there are no procedural differences between installing a UNICOS revision and a UNICOS update.
This subsection describes what you need to do to prepare for your upgrade.
Before starting the Upgrade installation, you must ensure the system is in the following state:
• UNICOS is in multiuser mode
